Evaluations
| Evaluation year: | 2017 |
| Meeting: | 84 |
| Specs Code: | N, T |
| Comments: | The Committee noted that the highest doses tested in two 90-day toxicity studies in rats and dogs were only 330 and 338 mg/kg bw per day (expressed on a “blue polymer” basisd), respectively. The Committee was concerned that the possible effects of the low molecular weight component of the “blue polymer” that could be absorbed were not adequately investigated. Because of the limited biochemical and toxicological database and the low margin of exposure, the Committee was unable to complete the evaluation for Jagua (Genipin–Glycine) Blue |
